It's all public information.

Square is exempt from the California Money Transmission Act per FC § 1805(d) (see http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/displaycode?section=fin&#3...), since it's actually JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. that is moving your money.

Square does not have a license.

And Square has no plans to get one as of last month.

Thanks!

Would it not be possible for them to partner in the same fashion to do direct debit?
